The Anaheim Ducks announced on Friday that forward Max Jones will miss the next four-to-six months with a torn pectoral muscle. Jones is scheduled to have surgery next Wednesday.

"It's a tough blow for Max as he made strides last season and was heading in the right direction this year as well," said Ducks general manager Bob Murray. "We hope to have him back this year and at full strength."

Jones took to Twitter to thank the fans who have been reaching out to him following the news.

"Been struggling with the news and I want to say thank you to all the fans for your support. It has made me feel a lot better mentally reading all your messages. Road to recovery starts now. Thank you ducks fans," Jones said.

The Rochester, Michigan native appeared in two games this season for the Ducks, recording no points, fifteen penalty minutes, and is a minus-one.
